Hey, it's devastating to give you this update. Turns out, both Calusa Nature Center and Bonita Wondergarden are still using my name as the principal officer for these birds. The crazy thing is, they have zero experience with these birds! U.S. Fish and Wildlife requires someone with valid experience in that species, like 500 hours of experience. But since they couldn't find someone, they decided to leave my name on both permits against my wishes. It's just mind-boggling.

Here's what happened next: we managed to get a writ of possession for all of our animals from both facilities. A writ of possession is basically an official document issued by the clerk to the sheriff, who's supposed to take action. But guess what? The sheriff doesn't deal with wild animals, so they called the FWC. And you won't believe it—the FWC took the stance that they don't get involved with property issues. They'd rather let someone without a permit keep the animals than do their job. Can you imagine how hopeless that feels?

We had a paralegal working on this in her free time, just trying to help us out. But guess what happened? An ex-employee of hers called her boss and she lost her job. It's just one blow after another. And get this, Bonita Wondergardens had my flamingos in a pond that turned out to have more bacteria than most septic tanks, according to the county. Some poor souls even lost their lives because of it. And what did they do? They replaced them with other birds from a dealer in South Carolina, using my name. I mean, seriously?

As if that's not enough, Calusa Nature Center thought it would be a good idea to put up a sign thanking me for my donation of animals. Seriously? I don't even care about the broken contracts they're liable for or the constant defamation. All I want is my animals back. I just want my life back.

It feels like such a helpless situation. The court stepped up and gave us a writ of possession, but the agency, the FWC, refuses to enforce it. It's like they're turning a blind eye to the whole thing. We had a paralegal helping us out of her own goodwill, but she lost her job because of it. And here we are, stuck in this mess, desperately trying to fight for what's rightfully ours.

I can't emphasize enough how disheartening this whole experience has been. All I want is for Calusa Nature Center and Bonita Wondergarden to give us back our animals. After everything we've done for them, the support, knowledge, hours of work, and the amazing animals we provided that helped their business survive and thrive, we're just asking for a little bit of decency in return.

If you're reading this and want to help, please reach out to Calusa Nature Center. Let them know that what they're doing is not okay. Ask them why they would want to hurt the very animals they claim to care about and urge them to return the animals to their rightful owners.

We won't stop until we hold all parties accountable for their actions. This whole ordeal has taught us some valuable lessons, and we'll be more cautious in the future about who we trust with our animals. Thank you to everyone who has supported us and taken the time to hear our side of the story. It means the world to us.
